Or a republican on his way to sign the paper that makes it so they don’t have to feel bad about going raw cause they can just kill the kid after. I’m not even republican but abortion is just disgusting. Use protection and stop acting like actions in life don’t have consequences.
very late but apparently in the books claire said shed rather have fake friends which is meant to sort of show why she sticks around the clique for so long
Produced by Queen Tyra Banks, released at the height of my ANTM obsession, an adaptation of the book series I based my entire pre-teen personality on? This movie was a favourite before I even laid eyes on it.
to this day, the most masterfully done plot twist i've ever seen is at the end of the clique when they're at chris abley's birthday and alicia says to claire "nice job trying to oust massie. you got closer than i ever did." ?? excuse me. sensational
The craziest thing about the books is that it was essentially about how power corrupts absolutely but through the lens of 13 year old mean girls and I think that’s brilliant
I genuinely think reading The Clique as a nerdy, socially anxious twelve-year-old was kind of bad for me? I wasn't confident enough in myself not to take the books as guidebooks and Massie's opinions as gospel. But on the other hand... it's also at least a _little_ funny that I actually stayed away from Keds because of how much they got dumped on in these books
Lmao I felt this so much. It reminded me of some troll on the YA subreddit who was like 'there's only TRASH' on this subreddit! And criticized it for all being escapism.
this was my favorite movie growing up and i remember thinking i had to dress like them so i wore winter gloves to school bc kristen wore leather ones lmao
the way you're one of the only youtubers I watch in normal speed instead of 2x speed because i want to maximize the amount of time i get to watch my favourite girlboss 😌
girl i read the clique books when i was like 9 and lemme tell u i was OBSESSED. i thought it was the most well-thought-out series ever and i lived for all the savage comebacks. i actually loved the movie too, it's a bummer we didn't get to see more
I was heavily invested in the clique books. Read every one the sister books, has the lip glosses, and watched that movie front back left right and center. Peak children’s literature ✨✨
wait there was a real lip gloss????? do you remember where it was from? I know this was posted a year ago but id love to get some for the nostalgia and cant find it online
the clique was literally my favorite movie when i was like twelve! and i always thought that they're supposed to be 16/17 year olds and was so shook when i found out they're actually 12 hahha
Ugh early 2000s movies * happy cries * another masterpiece of a film I love is *Sleepover* it’s got Jane Lynch, Alexa Vega ,Brie Larson , Evan Peters & STEVE FREAKING CARELL ✨
I’m 23 years old and this is one of my favorite movies. It’s a goddamn work of art and no one can convince me otherwise. The fact that you made this video makes me love your channel even more omg
I’ve never actually watched the movie *but* I do remember a website called SugarLoot running an online contest to star in this film. I believe the actress who played Claire won the contest! I remember auditioning for it thinking I would shoot to stardom playing Massie, even though I auditioned with Claire’s script. I even remember the mention of tasting pennies from the script 😂 Such a funny lil memory
They should’ve made The Clique into a TV show or had multiple movies inspired by the books. It was like a middle school version of Gossip Girl and Massie Block was the Blair Waldorf of the series
I remember finding out the bit where Massie scrunches up her hair and says "I am so back" in the kitchen was improvised and thinking that was peak cinema 💀
I was inspired by this so rewatched The Clique and OMG it was so gay. Massie hates Claire for no reason, is absolutely obsessed with her, gives her a nickname. 👀 Their final scene had so much eye contact. When Massie says “I’d rather be a friendless loser too” it’s like a love confession.
THANK YOU FOR RECOGNIZING THIS MASTERPIECE why is this channel so particularly bringing up everything i was into in middle school but yeah this movie rocked
I watched this film once when I was like 12 and yet the paint/period scene has been so seared into my brain to the point where I couldn't tell you anything else about it.
I remember reading The Clique series in my local bookstore. I spent hours there. Do I regret it? No. No, I don't. Also, the amount of lip gloss used in this series, can power a small village.
thank u so much for making a commentary on this absolute masterpiece of media! i was obsessed w the books and film when i was younger and i feel like the psychological damage it left on middle schoolers of the time (including myself) is not discussed enough today
ugh I remember watching this in school and genuinely believing I was failing at life because I didn't have an iMac in my room like massie and wasn't wearing Chanel and dior at the LITERAL AGE OF 12
I can't believe I just remembered this movie this week but couldn't remember the name and now I casually found this video you posted months ago THANK YOU SO MUCH
I read so many of these books as a child lmao and I was 12 like "these are basically trash tv but I LOVED it." I love that the movie is like 8 of the books shoved together hahaha.
Never watched the movie, didn’t know of it’s existence until 2 seconds ago but am I gonna sit through and watch the entire video even if it’s almost 2 am in my country? YES
the senator outfit is giving blair waldorf (also mean girl insecure energy) pretty sure I watched this movie because liz gillies was in it (wanted to go through her filmography) the lane liking oatmeal and potentially being a cat ears person immediately reminded me of simply nailogical :')
uncarley i was OBSESSED with this movie when it came out. Thank you for reminding me this masterpiece exists! also, you are way too cool!! love you girl boss
every time my best friend came over for a sleepover my mum would take us to rent a movie and every time I forced her to watch this with me until one day it wasn’t available anymore :( love that movie, she hates it lol
I was also obsessed with The Clique books and I got one for my birthday and I was so excited to read it that I brought it to school and someone STOLE it. I was heartbroken bc i didn’t get to finish it!! Also my personality in middle school was using the one-liners I read in the books and making every conversation so stilted bc I was trying to set it up for the line. lmao
i would love for you to do a video about book recommendations based on your favorite disney channel movie (DCOMS) like lemonade mouth, camp rock, geek charming, etc.
thank you so much for covering this movie i actually screamed when i saw this video in my subscriptions. honestly this movie should be as famous as mean girls because it's just so funny to look back on
The fact that nobody decided to dress up as one of them for camp Met Gala is just astounding to me. LISTEN TO SUSAN SONTAG PEOPLE, PURE CAMP IS ALWAYS NAÏVE
In the book, it explains the friendless loser concept a little bit better than the movie...basically...in both situations we’re technically alone...but at least if we chose the other option...at least we’ll be surrounded by people
Claire Lyons and Nick Carraway have similar energies... no I will not elaborate on this
you dont need to i understand completely
I know exactly what you mean!
And a bit of Dan Humphrey from Gossip Girl 😂
I hate that I understand this
OMFG WAIT-
"She's dressed like a Republican senator on their way to block an abortion bill."

Or a republican on his way to sign the paper that makes it so they don’t have to feel bad about going raw cause they can just kill the kid after. I’m not even republican but abortion is just disgusting. Use protection and stop acting like actions in life don’t have consequences.
the clique movie got drunk in the bar so pretty little liars could hook up with a teacher/spy/predator in the bathroom and then stumble into traffic.
Claire: "I'd rather be a friendless loser"
Also Claire: **ditches an actual potential friend for girls who clearly hate her🙃**
very late but apparently in the books claire said shed rather have fake friends which is meant to sort of show why she sticks around the clique for so long
I love that Claire was spelt as “Kuh-laire” in dialogue in the books.... just in case you forgot how to pronounce it like a drama queen
the way I don't give a shit about this movie and yet I sat through this entire video cause you make everything sound interesting... I'm down BAD
thank you!!
can we agree that every early 2000s movie is just a cinematic masterpiece, regardless of quality
it literally came out in the late 2000’s….
@@ririschannelx udk why but for me "early 2000's" means 2000-2012
@@janogucevich9924 well that doesn’t even make any sense lol early means early part of the decade

wait WHAT LMAO i watched the clique a million times and never got that how did that fly over my head hahaha amazing
Omg thisss >>> I always knew Alicia was capable of being queen bee but now I need backstory asap
Just rewatched the movie and OMG I JUST REALIZED IT TOO AND HOW BITCHY LEESH WAS HAHA
it's not a 2000's movie without a shopping montage
the influence this series had on me as a pre-teen...i can't. to this day, i have never bought a pair of white jeans because of it.
ooh YES same
imagine having such excellent taste in both literature AND film! carley never misses
also may i raise you a 'wild child (2008)'?
i LOVE that film
The craziest thing about the books is that it was essentially about how power corrupts absolutely but through the lens of 13 year old mean girls and I think that’s brilliant
I look forward to that “are you taking care of yourself” like every week
Not just that but how we die…. Poison, shooting, demonic possession?
when I see that theres a new video up I immediately drink a glass of water so in my head shes proud of me
I genuinely think reading The Clique as a nerdy, socially anxious twelve-year-old was kind of bad for me? I wasn't confident enough in myself not to take the books as guidebooks and Massie's opinions as gospel. But on the other hand... it's also at least a _little_ funny that I actually stayed away from Keds because of how much they got dumped on in these books
the clique is the best satire ever
@@uncarley I was too young and stupid when I read these to realize they were satire RIP
i read them because i loved to hate the girls
@@angelnafeesa5332 oh same lmao
K but this was me reading Meg Cabot's How to be Popular for actual advice instead of plot
i dont even know the movie im just here for my unhinged QUEEN
Bruh same
yes, same!
Lmaooo in the era of cancel culture you sorta need a term like “escapism-shaming” 😭 GENIUS 🤩
thank you!! exactly
Lmao I felt this so much. It reminded me of some troll on the YA subreddit who was like 'there's only TRASH' on this subreddit! And criticized it for all being escapism.
the way she said "kuh-laire" proves she references this movie so casually.
if you are into audio visual content please consider reviewing the Normal people show and comparing it to the book my dry sould needs it
yes i need this
THIS COMENT RIGHT HERE
I'd die, I need this so much
I was convinced I was the only person in the world that remembers this movie
girl SAME
this was my favorite movie growing up and i remember thinking i had to dress like them so i wore winter gloves to school bc kristen wore leather ones lmao
same thing in my opinion
you know, one of the girls in the clique was Spencer’s ex, the one he cheated with when dating teddy, who then dated pj… it’s sad that I know this tbh
alicia!!
omg yes her!
Yes I thought I was the only one that remember this
Samantha Boscarino 🥰
You are not alone!
changing my bio to "don't escapism-shame me" now, thank you!
the way you're one of the only youtubers I watch in normal speed instead of 2x speed because i want to maximize the amount of time i get to watch my favourite girlboss 😌
thank you bestie!
same!
Literally me
Omggg sameeee

when claire and lane in the clique is giving rory and lane in gilmore girls
Or Cady and Janis from Mean Girls
the "are you taking care of yourself or else" gets scarier every video LOL
Ellen Marlow who plays Clare has a YT channel and she did a reaction vid rewatching the clique !! It's everything
the way your content is getting better and better and my love growing for you more and more
i love that you love it thank you
is this a film review channel now? loving the expansion of girlboss horizons 😩💅🏼
Ugh early 2000s movies * happy cries * another masterpiece of a film I love is *Sleepover* it’s got Jane Lynch, Alexa Vega ,Brie Larson , Evan Peters & STEVE FREAKING CARELL ✨
Omg I fucking love the sleepover so much
YES
Also the bratz movie lol
the song in the lunch scene is actually sung by alicia’s actress, who was ALSO in good luck charlie lmao
laughing so hard at "12-year-olds wearing mumus"
In German "Mumu" is slang for vu1va and I was like excuse me? 😶
I feel so seen and known by the content you’re putting out into the world.
the way these books formed me 😭 for better or for worse though i’m not sure
dude same
I’m 23 years old and this is one of my favorite movies. It’s a goddamn work of art and no one can convince me otherwise. The fact that you made this video makes me love your channel even more omg

They should’ve made The Clique into a TV show or had multiple movies inspired by the books. It was like a middle school version of Gossip Girl and Massie Block was the Blair Waldorf of the series
Yeah they should
Apparently they were going to make three movies instead of one but the first didn't sell well at the time so they couldn't
I remember finding out the bit where Massie scrunches up her hair and says "I am so back" in the kitchen was improvised and thinking that was peak cinema 💀
i’m obsessed with the way carley’s mind works
The actor for Massie was KILLING IT even with her obvious cold, that's true girlboss queen vibez, grind 4ever 👑
I'm literally indian and have never seen most of Hollywood's early 2000 movies but still thoroughly enjoyed this video
“Don’t escapism shame me” on a t-shirt
finally someone acknowledges it
The actress who played Claire recently posted a video of her researching it
I was inspired by this so rewatched The Clique and OMG it was so gay. Massie hates Claire for no reason, is absolutely obsessed with her, gives her a nickname. 👀
Their final scene had so much eye contact. When Massie says “I’d rather be a friendless loser too” it’s like a love confession.
Putting my nervous breakdown on pause to watch this video
“it’s just important to me that you know that” i love the john mulaney energy
Love how many times Carly mentions the film looking camp in the eye but never explains how exactly it does it
You know what? I am obsessed with Carley but I have decided that is very much ok
i DEVOURED the entire series in middle school in like a month ?? i ATE this series UP
THANK YOU FOR RECOGNIZING THIS MASTERPIECE
why is this channel so particularly bringing up everything i was into in middle school but yeah this movie rocked
carley talking about pop culture… i guess next is a 2000s fashion video!!
i love this idea
massie and blair created my whole personality
I can’t believe Teddy Duncan, Skylar, and Bay Kennish were all in one movie
this is the kind of movie you watch as a kid and then suppress the hell out of until someone (carley) brings it up more than a decade later
Claire ditching Layne for Massie is the equivalent of what the HP Series would have looked like if Harry had ditched Ron for Malfoy in book 1
I watched this film once when I was like 12 and yet the paint/period scene has been so seared into my brain to the point where I couldn't tell you anything else about it.
hi the real dylan marvil here and i needed to thank you for this astute commentary i'm a changed woman.
I remember reading The Clique series in my local bookstore. I spent hours there. Do I regret it? No. No, I don't. Also, the amount of lip gloss used in this series, can power a small village.

You are HILLARIOUS!! The pure craft of this video and the way you delivered that sponsorship was just a thing of true beauty
“They’re friends with KUUUH-Laire now”
ugh I remember watching this in school and genuinely believing I was failing at life because I didn't have an iMac in my room like massie and wasn't wearing Chanel and dior at the LITERAL AGE OF 12
I learned the word "juxtaposition" from The Clique books, so therefore, it IS literature
I can't believe I just remembered this movie this week but couldn't remember the name and now I casually found this video you posted months ago THANK YOU SO MUCH
This movie and Wild child were core parts of my preteen experience and honestly ... how iconic
I read so many of these books as a child lmao and I was 12 like "these are basically trash tv but I LOVED it." I love that the movie is like 8 of the books shoved together hahaha.
I thought I was the only person on Earth who read those books. Truly an iconic preMean Girl mean girls...
(The book not the movie lol)
Never watched the movie, didn’t know of it’s existence until 2 seconds ago but am I gonna sit through and watch the entire video even if it’s almost 2 am in my country? YES
This is embarrassing but the clique series is literally what got me into reading
But isn’t that amazing? Like something so frilly introduced you millions of worlds
I was obsessed with this series in 5th grade because of it's lengthy descriptions of clothing and makeup lmao god help my 10 year old soul
I remember my dad had literally rented that movie for me to watch and I was LOVING it like no other
liz gillies is also in this movie which is also very important
yesss
You seemed so invested in explaining it properly while holding that pen its so funny😭😭
The Clique was my FAVORITE book in middle school and I appreciate how you pronounced Claire as Kuh-laire!
the real camp experience of this movie was watching it on my ipod nano but i am so glad you're doing justice for this time capsule of a movie
The girl who sings “how did i end up here” is the girl who plays Alicia, not Claire. Just a fun fact.
the senator outfit is giving blair waldorf (also mean girl insecure energy)
pretty sure I watched this movie because liz gillies was in it (wanted to go through her filmography)
the lane liking oatmeal and potentially being a cat ears person immediately reminded me of simply nailogical :')
i read the books religiously in middle school but just discovered the movie this year and i was so happy that it’s mostly accurate to the books
i swear i was rewatching the goldmine that is your video selection and this came out,,,, i will now just,,, live life
uncarley i was OBSESSED with this movie when it came out. Thank you for reminding me this masterpiece exists! also, you are way too cool!! love you girl boss
hey bestieee so excited for this video
every time my best friend came over for a sleepover my mum would take us to rent a movie and every time I forced her to watch this with me until one day it wasn’t available anymore :( love that movie, she hates it lol

the clique was literally THEE ONLY movie i watched when i was 7. carley doing a video on it feels so nostalgic.
the distinct memories i have of checking these books out from my middle school library & learning new ways to be insecure about my appearance
its a formative experience
“Fine I guess, I love oatmeal by the way” had me💀
i ADORE this movie and watch it at least once every month- i read all the books too 💀
I AM SO UNASHAMED TO SAY I LOVE THIS MOVIE WITH MY WHOLE HEART
i would love for you to do a video about book recommendations based on your favorite disney channel movie (DCOMS) like lemonade mouth, camp rock, geek charming, etc.
This seems like a cinematic masterpiece. I aspire to this level of greatness one day.
thank you so much for covering this movie i actually screamed when i saw this video in my subscriptions. honestly this movie should be as famous as mean girls because it's just so funny to look back on
The fact that nobody decided to dress up as one of them for camp Met Gala is just astounding to me. LISTEN TO SUSAN SONTAG PEOPLE, PURE CAMP IS ALWAYS NAÏVE
Wait you forgot to mention massie planning on jumping out of a cake for chris’ birthday 😭😭 with a shirt saying something like i ❤️ chris lmao
In the book, it explains the friendless loser concept a little bit better than the movie...basically...in both situations we’re technically alone...but at least if we chose the other option...at least we’ll be surrounded by people
your videos keep getting better and the are you taking care of yourself's keep getting scarier 😭 LOVE YOU CARLEY !! 💕
this book altered my brain chemistry so much as a kid i conveniently forgot to return the clique book to the library when i was 10
The oatmeal bus scene wasn't the end .... you didn't mention Massie hiding inside the birthday cake and Claire saved her from embarrassment
